    In action I need a surface to always face the camera. I guess this can be achieved fairly easy by using expressions (lookat maybe?). Unfortunately my knowledge of this is none, so gurus out there, please guide me in the dark mysterious art of brewing flame expressions. Thank you.

    Cheers,

    check out jake parker’s tip on “lookat”:

    also, be careful…lookat doesn’t work when you have a bunch of stuff parented above the image’s main axis node

    hi,

    besides expressions – depending on what you want to achieve you could also just link the surface below the camera. Or use 1 static particle (square, size 100) (wrap-)mapped with the image.
